Rancho Las Lomas is one of the most elegant wedding venue and private estates in America. Weddings here are especially beautiful and picturesque. This restored early California rancho offers a private and intimate atmosphere, set amidst exquisitely manicured botanical and zoological gardens.

My couple Karla and Paul had one of the most relaxed and fun filled weddings I have coordinated.  They picked Rancho Las Lomas because of the uniqueness and Old World Charm.  The couple and their guests were treated to the catering of 24 Carrot and danced to the sounds of Essence Entertainment,  I loved working with two incredible photographers Lindsey and April with Sweet Monday Photography.  Looking for a romantic and one of a kind location, Rancho Las Lomas is your Dream Venue.  Make sure you check out their website www.rancholaslomas.com

Five Star Weddings & Events Humbled by Bride

I wanted to share this letter sent to me from one of my favorite brides, her wedding at the St Regis Resort in Dana Point, Ca. was really a fairytale come true.  It wouldn’t have happened without all the hardworking vendors coming together, this letter is dedicated to you.

Laurie Davies is the most talented and detail oriented wedding planner in all of California!  She came with many references and she far exceeded all of our expectations.  She was prompt, and very organized and our wedding flowed with every detail in place and it was spectacular. She did everything! She had relationships with all the best vendors (who were all fantastic!) and they also gave us special pricing because of her!  She had so many money-saving ideas the entire way through our planning and saved us a bundle!  She was worth every penny! She let me relax and enjoy the planning process and most importantly, the wedding day was stress-free! Thank you so much Laurie for helping make the most important day of my life everything I always dreamed of!  Rob and I look at our pictures and just smile knowing it went off without a hitch and we owe that to you and your team!  You’re the best!!!

If you’re  looking for a romantic location with a Spanish Flare look no further - The Villa in San Juan Capistrano is the place to get married.  This is one of the most romantic sites I have visited in a long time.  Its located across from the Famous Mission in SJC, perfect place for photos either before or after the wedding.  The Villa is ideal for a small ceremony of 100 and can hold up to 150 for dinner and dancing.  I was invited to their opening where I was able to taste some of the most incredible appetizers and sweets.  This location has an upstairs pool room for the groom as well as a Parlor for the bride to get ready in.  There are whimsical hanging trees along with stone fire pits throughout the reception area.  Guests are allowed to use all the rooms which include a beautiful living room with a fire place and relaxing lounge. 

 I ran into Leslie Cunningham, professional photographer and owner of Click Chicks Photography as well as one of the top in her field.  I recommend checking out her site, she has lots of photos from the Villa and much more.

The following photos are from my camera, didn’t want you mix them with the professional. These were taken at the open house I was invited to at the Villa.
